ABOUT THE BOOK:- In the Metaporhosis, the German novelist Franz Kafka warns that capitalism harbours inevitable changes that will result ultimately in loneliness and horror. He does so with a prophecy that women will replace men in the 20th-century workforce, to their detriment. The Metamorphosis deals with an absurd, or wildly irrational, event, which in itself suggests that the story operates in a random, chaotic universe. The absurd event is Gregor’s waking up to discover he has turned into a giant insect, and since it’s so far beyond the boundaries of a natural occurrence, Gregor’s metamorphosis takes on a supernatural significance. Throughout ?The Metamorphosis, industrialism is expressed in a precise technical writing style using the themes of work, buying power, and dehumanisation through working too much. All this makes the story seem very factory-like as it warns us to find meaning aside from work and to beware victimisation, parasitic relationships, and abusers. However, these are exactly the issues we face today. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Franz Kafka was a German-speakingBohemian novelist and short-story writer, widely regarded as one of the major figures of 20th-century literature. His work, which fuses elements of realism and unbelievable, typically features isolated protagonists facing bizarre or surrealistic predicaments and incomprehensible socio-bureaucratic powers, and has been interpreted as exploring themes of alienation, existential anxiety, guilt, and absurdity. His best-known works include The Metamorphosis, The Trial, and The Castle. Born on July 3, 1883, in Prague, capital of what is now the Czech Republic, writer Franz Kafka grew up in an upper middle-class Jewish family. After studying law at the University of Prague, he worked in insurance and wrote in the evenings. In his literature, Kafka's characters were often coming up against an overbearing power of some kind, one that could easily break the will of men and destroy their sense of self-worth.Kafka seems to have derived much of his value directly from his family, in particular his father.

ABOUT THE BOOK:- This collection of short stories is a good example of early Wodehouse. It is here the Jeeves makes his first appearance with these unremarkable words: “Mrs. Gregson to see you, Sir”. Years later, when Jeeves became a household name, Wodehouse said he blushed to think of the off hand way he had treated the man at their first encounter. This anthology is a thorough introduction to classic literature for those who have not yet experienced these literary master works. For those who have known and loved these works in the past, this is an invitation to reunite with old friends in a fresh new format. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- P. G. Wodehouse (1881-1975) was an English humarist of the 20th century. Born in Guildford, the son of British magistrate based in Hongkong. He turned to writing at a young age, demons t rat ing great ski l l at humorous sketches and musical lyrics. He continued to write part-time while pursuing, at the behest of his father, a career in banking and successfully contributed numerous pieces to punch, Vanity Fair and the Daily express , among other publications, while interned along with other British Citizens in Germany during the second World War. In 1955 he became an American Citizen. He was considered for the award of a Knighthood three times from 1967, but the honour was twice blocked by British officials.
